Let BB do his job and let the season get going folks before we start criticizing the moves he makes. Stuff might not make alot of sense now but we're the ones on the outside looking in. If your working for the pats then you have every right to criticize, cuz you might know something. If you dont SHUT THE F" UP!!!!!

Sorry dude but thats a pretty dumb statement. If thats how you feel then lets shut down the forums. The whole point of DISCUSSION threads is to DISUSS what the team is doing. Or I guess if we leave them open, only people who work for the Pats can post on here.

What a boring place this would be if everyone agreed with each other and everything the Pats do. You know you can actually disagree with something the Pats do and still be a fan.

Im not saying fans cant disagree but to make irrational post every single time BB doesnt do something we think he should do is getting irritating and this is all before the season even started. Let the young guys make some plays or mess up before we start cuttin heads off, how do we know our OLB position won't be good with cunningham? Its ok to be objective and voice your opinions and concerns, but some of the brash statements made isnt necesarry for real pats fans. Leave that to the Fair weather's and trolls and at least till the REAL SEASON STARTS.

good point patsman2. i support BB and believe in the slogan "In Bill We Trust" but its ok to criticize or support his decisions. like you stated thats why this discussion board is here.

yeah yeah yeah, but what I can't G/D stand is at the end of last season we were all lamenting on our sorry as sin passrush, and here were are, at the start of the next year saying THE EXACT SAME THING.

I really thought Kraft and BB got the message last year, when they noticed that a lot of the stores and restaurants at Patriots Place were dying, and that they had difficulty selling tickets to the playoffs... but, I guess not.

Brady's time is NOW. Ride it out as long as you can... spend some cash... IN BILL WE TRUST does not apply anymore. Are you telling me you couldn't parlay one of the two 1st round picks next year for some stud on defense? REALLY? c'mon. Really getting sick of this. I hope I'm dead wrong, and we have a strong season (which for me, the definition of strong = wins AFC east and makes a solid run to the SB)... otherwise, Kraft and BB have become too G/D complacent, and their belief that "its the system not the talent" that wins games for them... NOT SO. You need BOTH. Stop running this engine on fumes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saying "THIS D SUKS!" before they have yet to play a meaningful game is not what I would call rational. In fact, it's quite the opposite.

Question if taking only 4 OLBs into the season is a wise personnel decision is being rational.

Saying "Moss didn't play hard last season" when he posted top 5 numbers in every WR category is not rational.

Saying the loss of Bodden is a blow is being rational.

If you were a Patriots fan before Belichick came you would remember how hard it is to build a winning team. Belichick has built 3 in the past 10 years. If you're a true fan you should believe in BB. Don't listen to ESPN, Breer and the other clowns at the Globe. Their job is to hate so we can post on their stupid articles. They are haters and, well...

I agree with 49patriots good points .... D played well against first offense for the falcons and saints.... moving pieces everywhere im sure we will be fine... bodden loss kind of hurts but mccourty was going to be butler for the starting job anyways looked sick in preseason. Young D , but fast and we will see. Plus the offense has gotten alot better than last year. Last year no 3rd w/r this year tate and edleman. last year tight end play suspect this year gronky,hernandez and crump....

Man everything was sorry last season but we still managed to win 10 games and make the playoffs. WE upgraded at certain areas and others are still in question. All im saying is this, its a new season lets see what happens FIRST before we start the witch hunt.

Here, Here... as if the Pats brass reads these things and then sez... " hey, I just read a post on Boston.com and a fan sez we should sign this player. Let's do it, because those fans know more than we do!!"

EXACTLY!!!! so whats the point in putting up some of the crap that is seen on here. people say things that are on there mind so things can change, if you yourself dont think it is.... y voice disbelief in your team before the season starts to people who cant change a thing and probly aren't pats fans, ON A PATRIOTS FORUM.

There is an enormous difference between a rational examination of the moves and a discussion of what we think of them and carpet bombing, for example, the entire defense. I agree with the original poster; let's see how the team does after it has been given a chance. Criticize? Of course you can. Condemn without a rational basis? Feel free to show your *a $ $* if you wish.

In Response to Re: LET BB DO HIS JOB!!!!! : Yes you are saying fans cant disagree.... you did! You are a troll, a neo nazi neocon! You would have told people to stay on the Titanic and wait for help, dont get in the life boats! If you were a soldier you would have had your entire platoon wiped out by now. Do us all a favor, go back to watching the Cartoon Network with the 4 year olds and stay away from the forum Chucky Cheese head!Posted by BloodnGutz
